I'm going to watch as soon as I can get near the TiVo- my 8 year old is hogging it right now!

 

[chell]

Sorry but I haven't watched yet. After I caught up on everything else including yesterday's shows I took a nap. Going to watch now.

 

[TinkerBess_SnowTori]

I missed it too - it was either finish up what I was doing or leave it and go home to watch today and miss tomorrow -- Friday is always so much better --- but I am curious to find out if I missed anything worthwhile.

 

[chell]

You guys wanted a recap and you are going to get one. It is probably more than you wanted to read. Will be back soon with it.

 

[KIRSTIN'S MOMMY]

Yay! Thanks Michelle!

 

[Jennifer S]

I'll let Chell give you the play by play - it was a lot. Pretty good. Tomorrow should be good if you get a chance to watch. The lilly/Keith story looks like it is about to wrap up.

I decided I don't really like Jen w/ Dusty. Don't know why. They just don't look right together.

How come Mike still hasn't mentioned Jen and that the baby is alive? Come on he signed the death certificate. You'd think Jen would say something to him - she's been in the stupid hospital enough- while Mike was a patient.

That is my only gripe w/ Tivo. It's not like you can take the tape and watch it somewhere else. other than that it's awesome!

Luke told his mother that he knows why she is marrying Keith. He wants to know if she is so afraid of him then walks out. Lilly was left calling his name. Why don’t they just go after them?

Paul offers Meg any amount of money to help him get better and keep her mouth shut about it. When she goes to the hospital to get supplies Jennifer is there looking for her. Jennifer lets her have it and Meg tries to defend herself. She says that Emily & Paul used her love for Dusty against her and played her. OH, Bob overhears! Can you tell I’m typing as I watch? Meg admits that she switched the blood test. Now Bob has walked up and asked Meg if she helped Paul & Emily keep Jen from her child.

Hal is with Emily at her mother’s house. Hal walked in and asked her what she was doing just as she was about to burn the scarf. Hal was on the phone with the police and they say Paul hasn’t returned to his apartment. He is asking Emily if she knows where he is. Emily is still telling lies. Where is Paul’s car? Didn’t they drive there separately? Hal asks her if she is holding anything back and if she is he needs to know now.

Paul is trying to tape up his wound. He can make some of the ugliest faces ever. Wonder if Meg will make it back to him or if she will be arrested? Sorry for adding all of these comments here. Paul is trying to push himself up when he falls to the floor again. I guess he is trying to cry now but it is another one of those faces.

Meg tells Bob she can explain then he informs her that she is suspended from the hospital and that she may loose her license over this. Jen tells Meg that she is about to loose everything and asks if it is worth it. Just then Emma shows up at the hospital and says that she just spoke with Dusty. When Emma asks what happened Jen tells her to go ahead and tell her mom what she did with her baby. When Dusty took some of Meg’s stuff home Emma gave him down the road for breaking Meg’s heart. Meg asks to speak with Emma alone and they go into a room. Meg asks what Dusty says. Emma says that she knew it would happen all along that when Jen got her baby back that Dusty would leave. Meg says she messed up and doesn’t know what to do.

Lilly goes to the farm house looking for Luke. Lilly asks Holden if he told Luke anything. He says it wasn’t hard to figure out. Lilly says she is worried about Luke. Holden says that he is also worried about Luke, he is worried what will happen to him if Lilly marries someone she doesn’t love and abandons her family.

Luke is going back inside of Lilly’s house and kicks her suitcase. Of course he finds some alcohol and drinks right from the bottle. How old is he anyway? He turns on the tv and drinks some more.

Nick and Katie talk – nothing interesting. Oh yeah, earlier he apologized for flirting with her. Then there is a noise at the door or something and Nick is on alert and grabs his gun. Katie hides behind a table. The door know is turning and Nick is ready to shoot. It is Mike saying he talked the doctor into letting him go. Nick is watching and you can tell he is uncomfortable. When the show started he was eating, now he is going to get a snack again. Nick asks if Mike wants some kind of sandwich that he used to love. Mike says his tastes have changed. Then Katie says she wants to know everything now, she wants all the juicy details.

Emily is still saying Paul left town and that she would have went with him so she didn’t have to come back and face the humiliation from him. Hal is going to check the apartment to see if Paul went back to his apartment to see if he took his passport, cash etc. Hal tells her that he is sorry she got hurt and that he will find Paul and will make him pay for what he did to Jen and to Emily. Emily had tucked the scarf under the rug in front of the fireplace. As soon as Hal is out the door she brings it out and holds it to her face.

Meg says she made things right in the end. Emma tells her that she didn’t raise her to be like that. She says they will go home and sort it out. As they are about to leave the room Meg sees Jen & Dusty hugging through the window. After Emma leaves Meg sneaks into the supply room and gets supplies looking around sneakily while doing so.

Holden says that Luke isn’t in his room. Why did the kids have to move out too? Holden tells Lilly that if Luke thinks he is the one who drove her away that he will not be able to handle it. Luke is still sitting on the couch drinking when Keith comes back downstairs yelling for Lilly. Luke left the liquor bottle on the couch and Keith finds it and asks who is there. Luke comes out with a little knife holding it up for Keith to see. Gee boy at least go for a larger one so that you don’t have to get so close to injure Keith!

Mike, Katie & Nick are at the table eating and chatting. Sometimes I have trouble understanding all of Nick’s words. Guess he is talking about why he is a cop. He had too many drinks one night, went out on his motorcycle and apparently had an accident. He is talking about the first cop on the scene and how he gave him another chance.

Lilly & Holden are still talking about Keith. Holden says he is proud of Luke for figuring out the truth. Then he tells Lilly that he wishes she would realize the harm she is doing by not telling the truth. She is begging Holden for his help.

Keith wants Luke to put the knife down. Luke tells him that he is trashing his family and that he knows that he got the kidney and is forcing his mom to marry him. Keith asks if Lilly told him that and Luke says no. Keith tells him to put the knife down. Luke tells him that if he wants it he should take it. You know, the boy who plays Luke has very small teeth on top. He tells Keith to use it to take out his kidney because he doesn’t want it any more. He wants a fair trade – his kidney for his mom back.

Emily smells and kisses the scarf then places it in the fireplace. She is doing her terrible crying again. As she is moaning she takes off her engagement ring.

Paul opens the front door again and Meg is on her way in. She asks if he was serious about making her rich. He just smiles.

Tomorrow: Keith grabs Luke’s arm and hits his wrist against his knee to make him drop the knife. Luke falls to the floor holding his wrist and Keith gets the knife holding it out at Luke. Just then Holden walks in and asks what he is doing to his son. Wonder if Luke can turn all of this around on Keith? That would be good. Hehe

Jen & Dusty telling one another “I love you” again then kissing.

Meg tells Paul that she couldn’t figure out why Paul didn’t want to report the person who shot him because it is Emily.

This was fun and I hope I haven’t annoyed all of you with all my silly comments.

Do they think we don't remember that?

 

[Diana Lyn]

Do they think we don't remember that?

And I loved your comments! I thought they were exactly what I was thinking. Great recap too! I can't wait to see what happens with Luke and Keith, I'm guessing it's going to turn into Keith stabbed Luke, and get out of town or we'll send you to jail for a long long time. But then what about JJ?? Poor kid, he's going to need some therapy with Dr. Michaels if Uncle Keith skips town or worse, gets killed!

Thanks!

I can't wait for Keith to be gone. Where has Dr. Michaels been lately? Poor, poor JJ. Maybe someone will take pity on him if his uncle does die or something and give him a good hair cut.

 

[TammyNC]

Thanks for the great re-cap. I won't get to see tomorrow either and don't have the DVD set to record. If anyone gets a chance to give tomorrows re-cap, I would really appreciate it.

Will be back home late Sunday night, enjoying a long weekend at Disney and walking the 1/2 marathon on Saturday.

 

[chell]

Thanks Tammy! Have some fun for me too! I will try to recap again tomorrow if I can remember.

 

[KIRSTIN'S MOMMY]

Thanks again, Michelle! That was an awesome recap, and your comments were right on! I hope I get to see tomorrow, but probably not...maybe we can talk you into another recap tomorrow night?

 

[Diana Lyn]

Looks like Daniel and JJ go to the same barber!

Oh no Mom, you've lost your earring. What a surprise!

 

[r3ngels]

chell- loved your recap...

Tammy have fun walking- I am thinking about it for next year... you will have to fill us in... give us a recap of your weekend and we will recap the show... well, chell will recap she is more entertaining than me

 

[chell]

Thanks Lisa! This is what happens when you sit at home alone and try not to think about life. But I am happy to entertain you all.

Here is today's recap, but it isn't near as entertaining as yesterdays. Sorry!

Holden comes in and says that he can’t find Luke and that the sun is almost up. One of their daughters comes downstairs and says she thought she was dreaming when she heard Lilly’s voice.

Luke is holding the knife (which is not the same one he had yesterday by the way, this one is larger and a different style) telling Keith to go ahead and take it and cut his kidney out. Keith tries to get him to sit down and talk. Luke says he knows that he got it so Lilly would marry him. Luke tells Keith that if he doesn’t cut it out that he will do it himself.

Emily is dreaming about marrying Paul then he is gone and she is yelling his name on the cliff as Hal walks up and says that he knows what she did. He the points to her hands that are covered with Paul’s blood. She is screaming in her sleep and Susan wakes her. Susan asks her if she is still angry with her for calling Hal. Susan says she thought Hal could help her. Emily says it was the worst thing she could have done.

Meg makes it back to the cabin and Paul is at the door asking her if she is alone or if she talked to anyone. She asks if he meant that he would give her money. She asks for one million and wants it transferred to her in a way that could never be traced. He tells her to set up a Swiss bank account. She makes him go back inside and says she doesn’t want him to fall because it will make it worse. Paul tells her she is in a really bad mood for a woman who just made a million dollars. He asks what her hurry is and she says that the sooner he is better the sooner she can leave Oakdale.

Jennifer comes in the room all dressed and ready for the day as Dusty is looking at a picture of them when they first meet. They chit chat and she tells him that she wants him to stay. They talk about how much they both have changed. Then they kiss.

Meg is giving Paul a shot of antibiotics and asks if he is allergic to them about time she has finished giving him the shot. Paul tells Meg that she should stay and not leave town. She says she is leaving Oakdale because everyone there is judging her about everything, including her mother. Paul then says “you got caught”. He asks about her job and says he knows it means so much to her. She is still in a bad mood. Paul says that everyone knows then since she lost her job and that he doesn’t blame her for wanting to leave. He says that as soon as he can travel he is gone and thanks to her that he can leave without a trace. Meg asks if Emily will be looking for him then he remembers what he told her.

Emily is remembering shooting him again and rolling his body off the cliff. Susan startles her bringing her something to drink to help her relax. Emily says that she can’t relax. Emily says that she has to get out of there and fusses at Susan for calling Hal. She is ready to storm out and find a place to live since she thought the whole reason for moving back home was for Susan to protect her, but Emily doesn’t think she did since she called Hal. Just as Emily is about to reach the door the doorbell rings and it is Tom & Daniel. Tom wants to talk to Emily. Emily tells Tom she is so sorry, etc. Tom asks if she is looking for sympathy and he sure hopes not. He says that it was his grandson that died and he never even got to see his face. Tom lets her have it. She says she took his side because he loved her. Tom asks if the remorse is because she is jilted. She says no, that she is trying to make things right. She says that Paul did this and it was all his fault.

Keith is trying to take the knife away from Luke and Holden walks in just after Keith gets the knife and holds it towards Luke. Holden asks Luke if he is okay and if he has been drinking. Lilly calls Holden and he tells her that he found Luke. Keith tells Holden to get some coffee in Luke before he takes him home. After Luke goes outside Holden tells Keith he is sorry about all this. Keith says he really likes the kid. When Holden goes outside to Luke the first thing Luke wants to know is if Holden tells Keith to stay away from Lilly. Holden is pissed off with Luke and makes him get in the car. Keith calls Lilly and says that Luke is having a tough time and thinks he is the reason the 2 of them are together. She says that she hopes Luke is okay, Keith says that he isn’t and that he tried to cut his own kidney out with a butcher knife. He tells her that they have to send a message to her family and have to leave right away. He wants her to meet him at the airport in one hour. Her daughters want to know if she will make them pancakes again tomorrow morning. She tells them she is going on a trip to CA with Keith and will be gone for a while. She says they can all come visit her.

Dusty & Jen go back to bed.

Emily is begging Tom if she can still be a part of Daniel’s life. She says she thought Paul loved her and that she was trying to make a good life for Daniel. Tom says he took no pleasure in keeping him from her. She asks for supervised visits, offers to take him to school, etc. She asks Tom to think about it and he says he will.

Meg is telling Paul she could always see him and Emily riding off into the sunset. She asks if Emily finally realized that he ruined her life and then blew him off. He says that is exactly what happened. Meg says that once Emily realizes he is missing that she will get all soft and go looking for him. Paul tells her that is not going to happen. Meg then says that she couldn’t figure it out why he didn’t want to report it to the police and that it was Emily who shot him (this was from yesterday’s preview if it sounds familiar).

Jen & Dusty are in bed when the baby starts crying. Jen tells him that he might want to put his pants back on and that it has probably been a while since her mom has seen a man in his boxers. Dusty says she needs to get used to the idea of him being around.

Paul says that it is his fault Emily shot him and that she basically snapped. Meg wonders why she had a gun; Paul says he doesn’t know but that they were afraid someone would try to stop the ceremony. He says it was self defense and doesn’t want her to be arrested, that she deserves another chance; she shouldn’t have sacrificed her entire life for him. He says that Emily gets her revenge and everyone else has what they need. Meg says she isn’t going to feel sorry for him. Are these two going to hook up? I sure hope not!

Daniel wants to know if Emily is going back to Paul’s. She tells him that they broke up and that she is sad. She tells him he is the very best thing in her life. He tells her that she lost an earring. Susan said she noticed it last night at the hospital. Emily says she must have left it in the car then asks Daniel if he would like a ride to school. They ask Tom if she can and he agrees if Emily calls him as soon as they get there. Off they go and Tom stays with Susan for a while.

Luke & Holden come in and Lilly is yelling trying to get Luke to stop. Holden says they are tearing Luke apart and that it has to stop.

Emily is on the bluff or cliff or whatever remembering again what happened. She is determined to find her earring so that no one can know she is there.

Meg starts to leave and Paul wants to know where she is going. She says she is going to get him some food because the sooner he gets better the sooner she can leave town. She then leaves the cabin telling Paul that she is going to get a disposable phone so he can call Switzerland and if the money is not in her account within 24 hours she is turning him in. A disposable phone? Haven’t heard it put that way before!

Holden tells Lilly that Luke is feeling very guilty about this deal she made. Luke is trying to stop her from running off with Keith. Holden says it is his fault because the kids got caught up in his fantasy. He says that she isn’t going to walk away from Keith that he is going to walk away from her family. There is a knock at the door with a delivery for Holden. He called her lawyer and got another copy of the divorce papers. Lilly is almost in tears as he says he will sign them if she doesn’t know what is in her heart. She asks if that is it and he says it is. He tells her that she wins. Holden says he should have done this a long time ago and that may have given Luke more of a chance to accept things. He says he never really thought they would get to that point then signs the papers and hands them to her.

Dusty brings the baby into the room with Jen while she is still in the bed but naked. When Dusty brought him in he was wearing his pants that he wasn’t going to put on earlier.

Susan asks Tom if he will let Daniel visit Emily if she is living there with her. Tom says they will talk about it when Emily makes the changes she needs to make. Hal calls Tom and Tom tells him to do what he has to do. Susan wants to know what is going on and he tells her that Paul never returned to his apartment.

Emily is on her hands and knees searching for the earring when she finally finds it. All of a sudden the fog has started rolling in and gets thicker and thicker by the moment. She says something about not being able to find her car in the fog and not being able to see anything. Meanwhile Paul is tending to the fireplace and goes to the door to get more wood I guess. Just then Emily walks up to the door and starts screaming as she can see Paul’s face through the screen door and the fog.

Next week:

Holden tells Lilly he is fighting for their lives with every weapon that he knows. He tells her that he hopes she will do right by their family.

Emily tells Hal that he is the reason she lost her mind and the reason she did what she did. She almost slips and about tells him what she did. She says he is the reason she thought she needed protection. Hal asks what kind of protection.

Meg tells Paul that she is the one who brought Paul & Emily down. She was responsible for them getting caught.

 

[KIRSTIN'S MOMMY]

O.K., Chell, need another recap, I missed it again today!

O.K., Chell, need another recap, I missed it again today!

What? You didn't see all that up there?

Nah, we posted at the same time. Enjoy!

 

[KIRSTIN'S MOMMY]

Wow, sounds like I missed a good one! So, does Emily realize that it's really Paul, or does she think she's going crazy? I guess it didn't show her talking to him or anything or you would have posted that....I'll have to wait until Monday!
